Shrewsbury Town vs Liverpool F.C. - F.A Cup - 26 January 2020 - 5pm

[magneto]

My team for Sunday:

 

Adrian

Williams Lovren Matip Larouci

Chirivella Lallana Jones

Elliott Origi Takumi

 

 

[Bogman]

I'd say that looks about right.

[McBain]

Minamino got an injury last night so it may be someone else.

[psl]

I think Fabinho will play.

 

Be nice if Shaqiri could be fit for a cup tie.

Mutleys Dilemma

[Cunny]

Fabinho plays, as does Shaqiri if fit.

[kop205]

Any spares?

[Mutley]

Come on Salop , you can smash these redmem. Oh hang on, wrong forum....

 

Come on redmem, you can smash these inbred sheep botherers.

 

Salop will play the usual 5 at the back, with three decent centre halves Limited prowess going forward, Shrewsbury lost their most potent attacking threat in Ryan Giles who has just returned to wolves from his loan spell.

 

Shaun Whalley is the danger man, a fellow red, who'll who give Larouci, if he plays a good run.

 

Shrewsbury will keep it tight and they'll be playing for a draw.

 

2-0 to the reds

[Cam]

Lovren isn't going to play in such an obvious B side. He will extend his injury/illness by a week.

 

Play Shaqiri if fit. Play Minamino if fit. Play Fabinho for part, either an hour from the start or the last half hour. Start AOC again (needs to get mileage under his belt and better in these games than crucial League ones).

[Conrad]

Fabinho has looked understandably rusty and needs minutes. he should play. so should Ox.

[PhilM]

Is Lovren even fit? I just sort of naturally assume that he isn't.

 

I reckon we go Shaqiri, Lallana, Jones in midfield.

I thought he really settled us last night, I know it was part of an overall formation change, but their pressure largely ended at that point.

He beat Salah in table tennis - of course he is fit.

[Conrad]

I thought he really settled us last night, I know it was part of an overall formation change, but their pressure largely ended at that point.

I thought we'd already regained control around the 60-65 min mark. Mainly thanks to Henderson.

Might have taken a while longer for me to calm down

[Conrad]

Ha

 

It was a tense battle for sure.

[smithdown]

Ha

 

It was a tense battle for sure.

 

Yeah rarely this season has the room been so silent as it was for a good 15-20 mins last night

I would be surprised if Chirivella started with Fabinho being available.

[Red Yoda]

Epic schoolboy error.....yep.....Fab in for Chirivella.

fixed that for you. 

[psl]

Arsenal or Bournemouth too.

 

Macca saying the last 16 will look like this and then listing 15 teams. Are his posts being tampered with for comedic effect again?

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

ah yeah, Monday games. Probably Arsenal

[psl]

ah yeah, Monday games. Probably Arsenal

Yeah you’d think so.

 

I’m bang up for the cup now. 9 points in the 3 league games since Everton and City dropping 2 at home to Palace has definitely given us leeway to try and do something incredible in the cups.
